Animal Phyla Lab Adapted from “Phylum Lab” produced by the National Aquarium in Baltimore The diversity of animal life on Earth is astounding. Each animal has a unique body plan which allows it to survive and adapt to its given surroundings. With such an abundance of species‚ classifying animals into different categories is necessary. At first the diversity of animals can be overwhelming‚ but after further research and observation‚ many likenesses appear. These similarities become the basis for

Mariana Mendoza Alvaro Puccini Maria Quin Solubility Lab Purpose: The main purpose of doing this lab is to learn how to interpret solubility graphs and how the temperature does affects the solubility of different substances. There are other objectives of the lab which are learning what are concentrated‚ diluted‚ supersaturated‚ and saturated substances and how can they be identified. The hypothesis of this lab would be that when temperature increases‚ the amount of salt and copper

Introduction: The importance of this lab is to get a deeper understanding of how the concepts of solutions and insolubility applies to the lab’s purpose of making chalk using precipitation reactions. A precipitation reaction is when a solid/ precipitate (insoluble) is formed when two solutions that contain soluble salts are combined. Some additional scientific concepts investigated in this lab are insolubility‚ double replacement‚ and limiting reactants. Insolubility occurs when a solute is incapable

catalyzes the substrate molecule into a product. Enzymes have the capability to break or build compounds which keep cell systems functioning. For example‚ our digestive tract has catabolic enzymes which break apart food for storage and reuse. Our lab experiment studied the relationship of benzoquinone production when altering the pH and temperature of the reaction‚ as well as enzyme and substrate concentrations. We used a Spec 20 to evaluate absorbance at 540 nm. Absorbance represents rate of

In the predation lab‚ my partner and I simulated the relationship between predators and prey in an ecosystem. To do this‚ we took 3 white squares‚ which represents the prey‚ and put them on a sheet of paper‚ which represents their ecosystem. We then took 1 larger pink square‚ that represented the predators‚ and let it fall onto the white squares. For the predators to be able to survive in the ecosystem‚ the pink square had to land on at least 3 white squares‚ and it also needed to land on 6 squares
